Dove/Canis Rex

Dove, the Saluki, ran into the foreign pack lands and surveyed the land and all the creatures who inhabited it. "These ones look strong enough." She said, looking back at Canis Rex.

"Yeah, perfect." Replied the Mackenzie Valley Wolf. He sat a distance from the pack and let out a howl for the alpha.

Eytan

Eytan came trotting to the call of ones unknown to him, but, to his great surprise, both of these newcomers smelt of an old friend. As alphen of these lands, he was the one they needed to speak to, and he was glad to help anyone who was a friend of hers. So his tail was waving and his manner very friendly as he came to greet them, a smile already on his face as his warm voice came forth. Well, what do packmates of my little sister Liseli have need of? Anything I can give is at your disposal.

Liseli and he were not related. Not really. But they were pups in the same pack, and great friends, along with a few others in the valley, and always counted each other as family. He had known Sauda quite well, too, and had suffered almost as must as Liseli had upon her death. All Dove and Canis Rex had to do was tell him what they needed, and it would be granted.

Dove/Canis Rex

Canis Rex stepped forward and bowed deep. "It would be much appreciated if you would help us fight against Risen. She has claimed many lives, and we fear that one of us could be next." He cocked his head and wagged his tail. "The choice is yours, but we could use your help, for your pack may be the strongest one I have seen."

Dove was scared. Her father had never let her leave his sight...until now. She wondered why. Glider had always said that they had strayed from her mother and siblings, but she felt that maybe it was something else. She saw it all now. "Rex?..." She said nervously.

Eytan

He smiled upon them, though his voice was grim and firm with the situation. Of course. Any service that I can provide is free to those whom Liseli cares for. Only tell me where my warriors and I can come, and I will meet you whenever you say.

And her turned warm eyes upon Dove, for he could pick up on her fear. His voice was warm and soothing as he spoke. Rest easy, new friend. Here in my lands, you are always welcome, and need fear nothing.

Dove/Canis Rex

Canis Rex began to speak. "It's over--" Dove cut him off.

"Don't waste time, Rex. Follow me." She said, then ran out of Eytan's land.

Penguin/Luna/Kuro/Shiro/Osprey

Penguin heard the conversation and led his family to where Eytan and the others stood. As Dove and Rex ran away, Penguin followed, along with his family...and his brother.

Eytan

Eytan howled to gather a few of his packmates, and then briefly explained the situation once everyone had arrived. This is a matter of defending the pack of my old friend. I will not command help from anyone, but if you would like to help, please follow me to Aspen Grove.

And he turned and dashed away.
